AK motorcycle dealer bonds.
$750 flat. Soft pull.
Alaska sets a $25,000 bond for dealers who sell only motorcycles — a reduced amount from the $100,000 general dealer bond. Ours is $750 flat, which is 3% of the bond amount, identical for every dealer. One soft credit pull, e-signed in 1–2 business days.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Alaska licenses motor vehicle dealers through the Division of Motor Vehicles and conditions the license on a surety bond. The general dealer bond is $100,000, but a dealer who sells only motorcycles files a reduced $25,000 bond. It is a consumer-and-public-protection guarantee standing behind your compliance with Alaska's dealer laws.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the State of Alaska together with harmed buyers (the protected parties). If a dealer commits fraud or otherwise violates the dealer statutes and someone is harmed, that person can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Dealers who keep clean records and deal honestly treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
